"Spare me, please... Help me, treat my hands! I... I was wrong... If you won't, then just kill me!" Barely a minute had passed, and Cheng Dalong was already on the verge of collapsing from the unbearable itching and pain. He had practically collapsed to his knees before Lin Feng, pleading desperately...

Cheng Dalong desperately wished he could pass out to escape the agonizing itch and pain in his hands. He wanted to scratch them desperately, but the slightest force caused his skin to crack open and exude bodily fluids. The sheer horror of it rooted him to the spot...

Cheng Dalong, at that moment, was desperate to lose consciousness. But his mind remained cruelly lucid; he couldn't bear the terrifying effects of the poison coursing through his hands. His only recourse was to kneel before Lin Feng and Xue Qingyi, begging for mercy...

By then, a pale yellow pus was already oozing from between Cheng Dalong's fingers and palms. His hands looked as if they were rotting away—a truly terrifying sight.

Ning Aoxue and Su Zi, who had been watching Xue Qingyi intently, suddenly turned pale. They never imagined that the seemingly delicate Xue Qingyi was actually a master in the use of poison. Moreover, this poison was so terrifying. Cheng Dalong's hands looked as if they had been soaked in concentrated sulfuric acid. It was utterly horrifying...

Lin Feng examined Cheng Dalong's injured hands. She actually used the most precious, top-grade compound poison... Qingyi must be furious! he thought with an inward sigh. Each gram of such a compound poison was worth over a million, and even Xue Qingyi herself had little in reserve. Her willingness to use it on Cheng Dalong showed how deeply he had offended her. It also meant Cheng Dalong had truly brought this upon himself!

There was no true antidote for this compound poison. Only Xue Qingyi possessed another compound poison that could act as a counteracting agent, its conflicting properties neutralizing the toxin.

In other words, the antidote was just as expensive as the poison. Knowing Xue Qingyi, once she decided to administer a poison, she wouldn't counteract it lightly. This meant Cheng Dalong's hands were likely ruined. At the very least, much of the flesh would be corroded away... He would be permanently disabled!

"How dare you touch my clothes! Leaving you with your hands is already merciful!" Xue Qingyi snorted, her voice dripping with disgust and disdain.

There was complete silence... Except for Lin Feng and Zhou Yang, who knew what Xue Qingyi was capable of, everyone else, including Xie Nan and Lu Pengju, was utterly dumbfounded. They couldn't fathom that this delicate beauty in a long skirt, who looked as if a gust of wind could blow her away, was actually a master of poisons.

Viewing the gruesome scene of Cheng Dalong's hands corroding and melting, Xie Nan couldn't help but frown. This is a bit too ruthless, isn't it? he thought. Although he had been involved in the underworld for many years and had encountered numerous ruthless characters, this was the first time he had encountered a woman so savage in her methods.

Such methods... they're practically inhuman. Where did she get such a potent toxin? She and Zhou Yang both seem to be old friends of Brother Feng. If Brother Feng's old friends are all this formidable, what on earth did he do in the past? Xie Nan mused.

Xie Nan subconsciously considered a few possibilities, then violently shook his head, not daring to think further. This woman is simply too terrifying. Or rather, Brother Feng's woman is too terrifying—far beyond anything I can imagine!

Unable to stand Cheng Dalong's constant rolling and howling any longer, Lin Feng signaled Lu Pengju to take care of him.

Lu Pengju understood Lin Feng's intent and moved immediately. A swift kick knocked Cheng Dalong unconscious, and Lu Pengju then dragged him towards the Fenghuo Bar.

Lin Feng and his group returned to the Fenghuo Bar. However, this time they opted not to use the front entrance. Instead, Xie Nan led them through a side door, directly into a storeroom at the back of the bar used for cleaning supplies.

As for Cheng Dalong's subordinates, who had been severely injured by Zhou Yang, Lin Feng couldn't be bothered with them and simply let them go. Lin Feng wasn't afraid of them reporting what happened. Besides, he only wanted to uncover Cheng Dalong's true intentions; capturing his underlings served no purpose. As for whether they would retaliate against the Fenghuo Bar upon their return, Lin Feng wasn't concerned. After all, Long Xiaoyun, the sole son of Lord Dragon of the Qingzi Sect, was still inside, rubbing his fists and raring to make a big move on this street!

"Let's leave him here. Xie Nan, Dapeng, take them to a private room in the bar to rest for a bit first. I can handle the interrogation myself." After observing the surroundings in the storeroom, Lin Feng frowned slightly and instructed Xie Nan to take Ning Aoxue, Su Zi, and Xue Qingyi away. What was about to happen was likely unsuitable for them to witness.

Xie Nan nodded and gestured for Ning Aoxue, Su Zi, and the others to follow him. Ning Aoxue and Su Zi were initially reluctant, but after Lu Pengju gave them a look, they obediently followed Xie Nan. After all, Lu Pengju had been their bodyguard for some time, and Ning Aoxue and Su Zi trusted him quite a bit.

Before leaving, Xue Qingyi gazed deeply at Lin Feng for a moment, then suddenly made a very playful, impish face. She glanced sideways at Ning Aoxue and Su Zi, then gave a slight smile, as if hinting at something to Lin Feng... This made Lin Feng feel a little anxious, yet he couldn't fathom what she was implying.

"Zhou Yang, stay and help me..." Lin Feng coughed lightly in embarrassment and said to Zhou Yang with sincerity.

Zhou Yang glanced at Lin Feng in surprise. He clearly hadn't expected Lin Feng to ask him to stay. However, he eventually nodded. After their recent clash, he had finally, grudgingly, come to accept the fact that Lin Feng was indeed the White Wolf King.

Only Lin Feng, Zhou Yang, and the unconscious Cheng Dalong remained in the storeroom.

SPLASH! Without a word, Lin Feng picked up a nearby bucket of dirty water left over from cleaning and dumped it directly over Cheng Dalong's head.

"NGH... AAH..."

Cheng Dalong let out a pained groan as he regained consciousness. The moment he recovered his senses, the excruciating itching and pain in his hands overwhelmed him, and he began to howl incessantly...

"Shut up, or I'll break both your legs!" Hearing Cheng Dalong's continued piercing howls, Zhou Yang, finding it unbearable, kicked him and barked irritably.

The kick landed squarely on Cheng Dalong's backside with considerable force, nearly causing him to pass out again. However, it also shocked him fully awake. Seeing the current situation clearly, a flicker of terror appeared in Cheng Dalong's eyes. Although the itching and pain in his hands were unbearable, he finally couldn't help but grit his teeth and let out a couple of muffled groans, stopping his screams. Only occasional, sharp intakes of breath escaped his lips.

Only then did Zhou Yang nod in satisfaction. "That's more like it. Behave yourself, and naturally, you won't have to suffer so much. Wouldn't you agree?"

Cheng Dalong stared at Zhou Yang with eyes full of extreme terror, not daring to show the slightest disagreement... He was on the verge of tears. And this isn't called suffering too much?
